Igneous Rock
This is molten rock found below the earth's surface.
What is magma?
forms when minerals that form from solutions or sediment from older rocks get pressed and cemented together
What is sedimentary?
forms when mineral grains are arranged in planes or bands, forming parallel bands
What is foliated metamorphic igneous?
When sediments go under compacting and cementing processes they become___________
Sedimentary rocks.
natural material that is used by humans
What is natural resource?
how much matter is in a given amount of space
What is density?
This is molten rock found above the earth's surface.
What is lava?
Clastic, chemical and organic
What are the three types of sedimentary rocks?
Forms when metamorphic rocks becomes magma and cools down creating big crystals
What is intrusive igneous rock?
When igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks go under weathering and erosion they become_________________
sediments
Natural resource that can be replaced at least as quickly as it is used
What is renewable resource?
Streak, luster, density
What are properties to identify minerals?
Igneous rocks are categorized as _________ or _________, depending on where the molten rock cooled.
What are extrusive and intrusive.
Forms when sediments are buried and cemented together by calcite or quartz
What is clastic sedimentary rock?
do not have mineral grains aligned in planes or bands
What is nonfoliated metamorphic rock?
The processes that turn metamorphic rocks into sediments
What is Weathering and erosion?
natural resource that forms much more slowly than it is consumed
What is non renewable resource?
Classification of minerals
What is silicate and nonsilicate?
__________ igneous rocks have larger crystals than the other kind of igneous rocks.
What is intrusive?
Forms when water, usually seawater, evaporates
What is chemical sedimentary rock?
Forms when metamorphic rocks go under pressure and temperature changes.
What is metamorphic rock?
_________ and ____________ turn sedimentary rocks into metamorphic rocks.
What is heat and pressure?
Sun, water, soil, wind, and wood
What are examples of renewable resources?
building blocks of matter
What is atom?
forms when metamorphic rock melts and cools.
What is igneous rock?

What are examples of nonrenewable resources?
naturally occurring, usually inorganic solid that has a definite crystalline structure and chemical composition
What are minerals?
